Love and Decisions [pjm - ksg]

Part 1 - Try

"Seulgi-ssi, how are you?" A person in white coat, she guessed a doctor, asked her as another person beside, most probably the nurse, listened attentively.

"Where am I? What happened" Were all she wanted to know.

The two looked at her with worried expressions as they exchanged eye contact.

"Seulgi-ssi, I am Dr. Son. You are currently here in Museum Star Medical Centre since two days ago. Do you remember what happened?" The female doctor introduced herself and waited for her answer keenly.

She kept quiet for a while trying to recall. Her eyes stared at a distant nothing. "Seulgi....." she started carefully "is that me? My name? Who am I?"

With that the pair in front of her widened their eyes. They seemed to be communicating telepathically as they again looked at each other.

"Seulgi-ssi, you really don't know why you are here? Can't you remember what happened two days ago?" Dr. Son questioned again as she really needed to make sure.

Seulgi just stared at her cluelessly and then shook her head. In return, Dr. Son took in a deep breath. "Okay, Kang Seulgi-ssi, that's your name. We'll need to have to run a full check-up on you again but for now it seems that you suffer a memory loss."

"Me-memory...loss? Who am I? What's wrong with me?" She inquired impatiently. "Where do I live? Am I alone?"

"Please calm down, Seulgi-ssi. Don't worry, your family is just outside. But before they can meet you we'll briefly tell them about your condition." The female doctor comfort her.

"I am sick of this. I am tired of you ordering me for your stupid and selfish business. I shouldn't have agreed on this crazy idea of arranged marriage. If not for Uncle and Aunty Park, I would leave you in a ditch, Park Jimin!" It was one of the many fights they were going through ever since their nuptial six months ago. Seulgi thought she was insane because who in their right mind would stayed in her situation for that length of time. Selfish relationship, mentally abusive and just physically and emotionally challenging.

"Hah! Come on now. It takes two to tango, my dear wife. If I am selfish then what about you? Remember, your father proposed this for the sake of his business. He needs this partnership to get that tender and expand his empire even further. In fact, if you think about it who is being used here?" He retorted and looked at her ragefully.

Yup. Seulgi was definitely insane for even trying to keep her marriage. All she ever got from him was his rage for supposedly being unfairly trapped with her. She hated that. It made her felt disgusted with herself and guilty. Worse, it made her broken every single time. She wouldn't have to but it's too late now. It would make her life a whole lot easier and happier if only.....

.....if only her husband wasn't the man she fell in love with. She married her first love but why did it feel like she was in hell?

The door opened and an elderly couple followed by another couple around the same age came in. All of them showed very concerned and worried expressions. The ladies even had swollen eyes.

"Our daughter!" The first lady exclaimed as she hugged Seulgi. "Aigoo.." Without warning she started to cry. "I was so worried when you didn't open your eyes for that long."

"O-omma?" She hesitated.

Somehow her question made the lady cried more. "Oh.. yes. This is omma. You remember me right, my baby?"

She didn't answer her but hug her even more tightly instead.

"My princess" A man joined them and the three of them embraced one another.

"Appa.." Seulgi called out and the man just nodded.

Realising they were not alone, Seulgi looked at the man and woman who came in with her parents with a questioning look. Her father noticed her. "Seulgi-ah, your in-..."

Before he could finish, someone barged in through the door. A man in medium height but well-built body apparent in his suit. His first expression when he saw her was... relieve?

"Ya- Jimin-ah, where have you been?" The woman said as she grabbed him and bring him closer to her.

Seulgi stared at him and he did the same. She could see that through his eyes he wanted to say something but Seulgi beat him and asked him first. "Who?"

She heard loud gasps from the elders while the man widened his eyes still looking into her brown orbs. It was only silence for some moment.

"Seulgi-ah..." Her mother was the first to break the silence "This is Jimin, baby. Your husband."
